For SEC EDGAR filers, the SEC EDGAR Redering Engine is included in the builds. Activate by help->manage plugins, select EdgarRenderer, and activate an SEC validation (such as EFM-pragmatic-all-years). Rendering output can be saved on disk, viewed in browser, or returned by web service results.

For Data Quality Consortium (DQC) validation the initial US SEC rules are included in the builds. To use, select the DQC plugin (help->manage plugins, select validate/DQC), and activate an SEC validation (such as EFM-pragmatic-all-years).

For Table Linkbase users, this version integrates Acsone’s implementation of table rendering using TkTable. Performance improvement is significant, and graphical interfaces provide QName labels and improvements for open tables. Select an EIOPA or EBA taxonomy package (using help->manage packages) for faster performance.

For command line users, the plugin and package configurations no longer couple GUI choices to command line usage, so command line is independent of GUI options.

Validation for all disclosure systems is by plug-in configurations, managed by help->manage plug-ins.

Validation by the validate/EFM plug-in meets the new renderer-based SEC validations in the test suite posted on SEC website public test suite. New tests for EFM.6.12.6-9 and EFM.6.26 require the EdgarRenderer plugin to be enabled.

As a side benefit, Arelle provides the rendering view that the SEC website is expected to produce shortly (with their upcomming release corresponding to their newest test suite).

For EdgarRenderer GUI operation, select the EdgarRenderer plugin. The default view behavior is to open a browser with all reports in one view. A menu of view tables (as on the SEC website) can be selected by View->EdgarRenderer->show menu (but on Windows requires relaxed browser security settings).

For command line operations, until we have a chance to finish testing and documenting, please refer to comments in Edgar Renderer/__init__.py.

The source code for this build is the gitHub arelle master branch, and the EdgarRenderer edgr154 branch (installed to arelle/plugin/EdgarRenderer).

Please provide feedback and comments to support@arelle.org, the issue tracker at arelle.atlassian.net, and the google group arelle-users.

The index is organized like the SEC Rendering engine output, however tables have dimensional disaggregation in columns instead of below in rows, and flow-through suppression is not yet available.

A new plugin “validateEBA.py” adds EBA and EIOPA Filer Manuals validation (just the filer manual checks, not data checks). When this plugin is loaded the tools->validation->select disclosure system dialog has EBA and EIOPA options. They can also be used from the command line.

Mac operation has been tested on Yosemite (apologies again for prior delay at Mavericks release).

Other changes are noted in the atlassian and gitHub logs.

http://arelle.org/2014/03/27/updated-edgar-tests-improved-table-rendering/#respondThu, 27 Mar 2014 20:16:27 +0000http://arelle.org/?p=692The updates of 2013-03-27 incorporate U.S. SEC Edgar updates for compatibility with their test suite web page. The doc subdirectory of the zip file contains an html file of the corresponding (v.27) Edgar tests. The SEC is in the process of testing these and arranging release dates. IFRS is not anticipated to be approved for this release (so it is blocked in the efm-pragmatic and efm-strict Disclosure System settings, only available for experimentation in the efm-*-all-years option. The edgartaxonomies.xml file is now the one in the lib directory of the above zip file, but the prior one is still in Arelle’s config directory (named -2013).

Table linkbase rendering has been updated to adjust row header wide labels to squeeze down to leave room for some data columns, and to readjust as the width of the windows is resized.

EBA users update 2014-01-27: we’ve updated features used by formula for interval arithmetic, and think it’s now working, as well as showing labels and messages (terseMessage, etc) as used by EBA’s taxonomy. Again, please e-mail support@xbrl.org if there are examples that need attention.

MacOS Python update 2013-12-01: we’ve given up on the py2app App builder and switched to cx_Freeze (same as used on Windows and linux/unix). Please test the new MacOS download on your platform, this is a completely new build using a new package.

(Prior builds are in the archives, linked from the downloads page)

The web pages documenting command line and GUI operation have been updated with plug-in information, particularly for the xbrlDB database loaders for multiple database products and two schemas.

For EBA table linkbase users, taxonomy package is now supported, you no longer need to mess with the cache to get the EBA distributed releases properly redirecting using the taxonomyPackage or Oasis catalog manifests.

Please provide feedback to support@arelle.org, to the arelle user group linked on the download page, or by adding comments and issues to the Jira bug tracker (arelle.atlassian.net).
